Jean, Anita and I hope that the academic year has started well for you all. Don’t forget to use this blog as a way of keeping in touch with each other and us about your teaching. It is always going to be of interest to know what ideas you are exploring with your pupils and colleagues. If you aren’t teaching yet, keep an eye on the blog for interesting opportunities that you can take advantage of while you are looking for a post.
